Ollie Robinson is learning from Mohammed Shami’s straight seam technique and seeking advice from Ishant Sharma for the upcoming Test series against India.”

Virat Kohli and Ollie Robinson had a lot to say to each other the last time India and England squared off in a Test series in England. Kohli has mellowed a lot but the way Robinson has set the stage, chances are high that Round 2 might take place in India in the final week of January.

England will play five Tests in India from January 25. Ollie Robinson, stepping up with Stuart Broad retired, will share a big responsibility with the legendary James Anderson.

Before the first Test in Hyderabad, England’s Ollie Robinson talked about Kohli. He recalled a tough time in the Lord’s Test in 2021 when Indian fielders, led by Kohli, made it challenging for him. Robinson mentioned watching a video where Kohli said something to him after a delivery from Mohammed Siraj hit him in the chest, but he couldn’t remember exactly what Kohli said.”

Robinson, who dismissed Kohli three times in the last series, aims to challenge the former India skipper’s confidence. Excited about facing top players, he sees Kohli’s big ego as an opportunity, especially in India. Robinson, previously in the reserves, now embraces the challenge of adapting to conditions and learning from experienced bowlers like Shami and Ishant.

Robinson Learning from Shami and Ishant, Ready for Challenge in Absence of Broad”

In simpler words: “Robinson copying Shami’s technique, getting tips from Ishant, and gearing up for challenges without Broad.”

I used to prepare thinking I’d lead the attack for years, maybe too far ahead. Now, maturing, I focus on the present, not aiming to be the leader. It’s about supporting Jimmy, the spinners, and the team. A successful tour in India can solidify my place. Doing well will secure my spot in the team for a while. I’m not looking too far ahead; just giving my best For England.
